Re: TM's Garage
Kyosho Turbo Ultima II This was built collecting parts over time. I wouldn't have been able to build it without the help of Roger (Highway Racer) and Scoot Mike. Those guys are always saving my butt with parts :D TBG body/wing and MCI decals (per usual) and some nice used parts that cleaned up very...

Re: TM's Garage
RC10T One thing that always bugged me about the 10T was the front fender well being so offset. I wanted to do something different with this build and when I seen this Chevy S10 Blazer body, I knew right away this was the one. It actually looks very similar to one I drove years ago (minus those humo...

Re: TM's Garage
RC10DS It's no secret, I love Kyosho RC buggies. But, occasionally I do build other stuff and since this is an RC10 forum......lol This started with a freshly powder coated pan. Wasn't sure which direction to take it in and then I came upon a full set of DS parts. Only problem is I didn't have one ...

Re: TM's Garage
Kyosho Turbo Scorpion This was built using a few rere parts, but all original parts were a gift from my good friend ScootMike. I did a few restorations for him and he showed his appreciation with this beautiful buggy. Front wheels, rear rims, tub and rollbar are re-release parts. Alloy roof and rea...

Re: TM's Garage
1987 Joel Johnson Ultima Tribute I have to give a TON of credit to Daniel Rowlands for all the help with this build. Having the original in hand and sending me dimensions to get this as close to the original as possible was a HUGE help. Also for sending that LiteSpeed dye for the front rims ;) Roge...

Re: TM's Garage
Kyosho Ultima Pro XL This one was a complete restoration. New tires were needed for the front but the rest of the parts cleaned up very well. As always, body/wing is from TBG and decals from MCI. I had GoMach (Jeff Malar) make the battery holders and esc deck. The manual called for a SPA 240WS and ...

Re: TM's Garage
Kyosho Sidewinder This was an ebay find. Came with unpainted body and original decals already applied. I decided to do a complete tear down and a light restoration was all that was needed with this one. I was very surprised that I actually won this one and even more surprised at the condition it wa...

Re: My Optimas
Very nice buggies you have there! ;) Really love the Turbo Mid Special, one of my all time favorites. I am a huge vintage Kyosho fan myself. Currently, I am building a TOMS but recently discovered that the chassis I have is actually from the Custom Special :/ Going to go ahead and finish it though. ...

Re: TM's Garage
Kyosho Celebration Optima I always wanted a Celebration kit or better yet, a Celebration Optima. Because those are ultra rare and NIP Celebration kits are VERY expensive, I bought this Pargu kit. I ended up getting the kit plus side & motor guards for less than half of what a Celebration kit se...

Re: TM's Garage
Kyosho Turbo Ultima One of my all time favorites. I happened upon a bronzed chassis and immediately started this build. Scored the Option House Platinum shocks from eBay, top deck fabricated by GoMach (Jeff) and the usual TBG body and MCI decals. I am still waiting on properly scaled decals from MC...

Re: Turbo Optima goes to full option ... and becomes Salute!
You did an outstanding job on this build! I love it ;) I am in the process of building a Celebration chassis Optima and was unsure which direction to go and this is WONDERFUL!!! My goal is to have every Optima in the series and soon will be 3 away from that goal. I have another Turbo Optima coming t...

Kyosho Optima Mid This is a Mid that I salvaged from The Netherlands. Needed full restoration and various new parts. TBG body & MCI decals. http://i972.photobucket.com/albums/ae206/hiddenrebelbase/Kyosho%20Ultima%20Optima/DSC04911_zpsb25axnmk.jpg http://i972.photobucket.com/albums/ae206/hiddenr...
